Does this apply to the Red Box?

Nope.

RB doesn't care at all about trivial things like errors!

I have 7 short blinks with the MIL. Does anyone have any ideas about what that means?

OK try this :

also: this guy with a BS4 euro4 goes a little bit deeper into the issue, including resetting the ECU

OK try this :

Thanks, that is the main source of information I have so far. I might have to face the local dealer and book something in, otherwise buy the diagnostic tool from Hitchocks.

Not all OBD tools are created equal. after a few failed (cheaper) options I went with this one for all my BS4 and BS6 models (Hima and Meteor and Hunter):

ELM327 Bluetooth OBD-II Scan Tool​

and the TORQUE app for Android. It costs a few bucks but is worth it. On the Meteor I use it as tacho (with an old mobile).

also make sure you get the correct cable, for the Hima BS4 and BS6 it is the one depicted below.

Thanks for that, I was going to get the one from Hitchocks, but will look this up.

I have just tried the old ECU and only get the continuous MIL. So, I think it might not be a big problem, rather an annoying flashing light while I ride.

Using only the OEM ECU has the inherent risk of running way too lean. That can lead to overheating and seizing. Plus of course annoying and dangerous knocking.

I only kicked it over, and ran it for about 10 seconds to see if any other codes came up. The Red Box is back on and I am going for a test run today up to the servo for some 98 RON and start in the 500 km bedding in period. Gunna clean out the car trailer first, just in case I need rescuing.

I might XYZ an email to see if they can help identify the issue.

Good luck getting info there!
Some people sell things and do not have much support, the Red Box is useless as shipped from the supplier and needs the Maps created by our members.
